Help me give my students rewards for school wide positive, responsible, and hard working behavior.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Waniewski's classroom raised $588

My Project

Our school is focusing on encouraging students to maintain positive behavior. In the last 4 years with new administration and innovative staff, we are making great progress toward improving our school culture.

One of the ways we are encouraging our students to maintain good behavior is through our school wide PBIS program.

The items in my project will be used to treat students who are working hard at always doing what is right.

Students need to know that the teachers and staff appreciate their hard work. Even the simplest positive reinforcement can make a big difference in a student's work ethic and behavior.
